We send a direct HTTP HEAD request to github.com from our serverless infrastructure, measuring the response time and HTTP status code. We also scan social networks, Reddit, and news sources for outage signals.
Where can I see GitHub incident history?
This page shows recent incident data for GitHub. For detailed uptime tracking and 30-day history, consider Starter or Growth monitoring.
What HTTP status codes does GitHub return?
We couldn't reach GitHub to check the status code. Run a fresh check for the latest results.
How can I monitor GitHub uptime?
Starter and Growth plans probe github.com every 60 seconds and send alerts via email, Telegram, or Discord — typically within 1–5 minutes of a detected outage. Free users can check manually anytime.
How does a GitHub outage affect my CI/CD pipeline?
If your build or deploy pipeline depends on GitHub, it may stall during an outage. Consider caching dependencies locally and having fallback registries configured.
Can I still push code during a GitHub outage?
Git commits are local, so you can keep working. Pushes and pulls require a connection to github.com. Wait for the outage to resolve before syncing.
